"Relax man, Have you gone crazy Because of your excessive enthusiasm?"
"Of course, I'm excited. I'll go crazy from excitement. I won't be able to rise up using only weak and cheap beast core. Also, by choosing the appropriate fighting skills for my laws, I will be able to build a solid foundation in preparation for entering the world of law in the future. Speaking of the future, it looks very bright... very... very"
What Du Bai said is true. The world of law is called the nightmare world because fighters have to start from scratch with their laws, and many spend long years of their lives in this world. This is because training in the law before activating it leads to breaking the soul's entity. Therefore, everyone postpones training on law techniques until entering its world.
From this perspective, Du Bai, who will train early on his laws, will have the upper hand, but things are not that easy. Without a beast core at the fifth level that matches his soul's entity , reaching the fusion world remains impossible.
"It seems that his enthusiasm made him forget that the world of law is also a nightmare for him. No need to spoil his joy... His voice is really awful."
"Oh, singer, creating a contract with a your partner consists of two parts, the first is difficult and the second is easy."
Du Bai jumped with excitement and said, "It doesn't matter how difficult it is. Just tell me what I should do?"
"The difficult part is getting the horn of a young night wolf."
"A horn of a young wolf, is that the difficult part? I already have one, Look at this ring. It's a wolf horn carved like this. My family makes jewelry from the bones and horns of beasts."
Without hesitation, he removed the ring from his finger and poured his power into it, staring at it, Jin looked surprised.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm infusing it with my power."
"Are you stupid? The ring was on your finger the whole time, which means it's already saturated with your energy. Do you think you can change it now?"
He shook his head, denying.
" you shouldn't do anything I didn't ask you to do, anyway with the wolf's horn available, let's move on to the easy part...".
Before Jin could finish his sentence, Dou interrupted him with singing.
"Come on to the easy part, come on... let's meet my partner, come on...".
'Now I'll feel bad if I ruin his happiness," Jin thought as Dou started singing louder. The wicked nature in Jin took over, causing him to smile a malicious smile and think, "Who cares, let's ruin his happiness'
"The second part, you have to die temporarily...".
The singing stopped and the joy disappeared instantly. Jin's eyes confirmed how serious he was as Dou exclaimed and took a step back, "Temporarily die? You said that was the easy part, how can my death be the easy part?"
Jin shrugged uncaring as if death was an easy request not worth mentioning. "If it weren't for the ring, you would have had to hunt the Night Wolf yourself, and that's not an easy task, especially since those beasts live in groups"
"But your death is not the difficult part, you won't do anything but lie down on the ground, and I'll do all the work. Don't worry, it will only take two minutes, and I'll send you to the world of spirits to meet your partner face to face, make the deal, and I'll bring you back again"
"I think I forgot to take out the trash, and my mother will go crazy if I don't do it. I have to go, bye"
Dou's voice was distant, he had already reached the door and was about to leave, but Jin stopped him.
"Reaching the highs or death while trying, isn't that the phrase that brought you here?"
Dou's hand froze on the door handle, his heart telling him to flee and escape with his skin, but his mind and ambition telling him the opposite.
In the end, he surrendered to his mind, "How will you do that? How will you temporarily kill me?"
" through magic, of course. I'll draw a magical circle on your chest that will stop your heart and send you to the world of spirits."
Dou's eyes widened in surprise, "You're a mage, no wonder you were so confident in passing the exam and dared to make a bet."
"your situation is worse than mine. You must have heard the saying that the poor do not consort with mages, and yet you refused the help of shin family."
Beginner mages need a huge amount of elixirs to raise their level and improve their abilities, without mentioning the magical tools that reach exorbitant amounts of money.
Dou, who lamented his luck because of the expensive beasts' core, his trouble was nothing compared to to that of a common mage.
Jin did not want to talk about the subject and asked again, "What do you say, do you want to meet your partner or not?"
"Damn it, isn't there another way? I don't know what scares me more, that I am about to die, or your coldness, man. Listen carefully, if I don't survive, I swear my soul will haunt you forever."
Dou lay down on the ground, closed his eyes, and tightened his fists, waiting for his death.
He waited for a long time, and nothing happened until he finally shouted after opening his eyes, "Did you hurry up and get it over with, freeing me from the agony of waiting?"
As soon as he finished his sentence, he found himself standing in a vast field, and in the middle of the field, there was a huge gray box tied with chains, and inside it, there was something struggling to get out. On the top of the box, there was a small hole, and his curiosity made him look through the hole to see two black wings he had seen before.
* gasp * a deep gasp, as if he was trying to inhale all the air in the room, followed by a breath that lasted for several seconds.
Du Bai's body had difficulty breathing after his soul finally returned to his body, his breaths steadied.
"He's winged, a winged beast with black feathers like night. That's all I saw. I begged him to make a contract with me, and he agreed to it."
"We'll know soon enough. You must focus and put all your energy into the ring, and don't stop until you feel a change happening."
He nodded with his head and followed the instructions. After a short while, he could no longer hold the ring as he felt a burning sensation between his fingers, so he put it on the table and shook his hand, shouting,
"Cold, it's too cold... this means I have the element of ice. It's both defensive and offensive. This is the happiest day of my life."
Out of joy, he began to jump and throw punches in the air, but he suddenly stopped to point at the ring that was floating in the air. Du Bai's eyes stared at Jin, wondering what was happening, as Jin replied with a smile,
"Congratulations, you have a second element, the element of wind."
His joy reached new heights after discovering that he possessed the element of ice, but now that he possessed a second element, he was literally going to die of happiness.
"Wind... ice and wind, the wind of ice, the frozen wind, the ice hurricane..."
Du Bai's face became strange, and he entered a state of ecstasy that one could not tell if he was happy or hallucinating.
"Is this what they call day dreams? He's naming his attacks," Jin sighed at his actions, then approached the ring that was still floating and moved his hand under and over it to notice something different than what he expected.
"Du Bai, Du Bai wake up!" he raised his voice. "The ring is floating calmly, and I don't feel any wind around it. It's the element of air, not wind."
Finally, Du Bai woke up from his dream and realized that the names he had given were not correct.
"Ice Air isn't a suitable name for my attacks. It's not a catchy name, and Ice Wind isn't suitable either... "
"Are you still dreaming, you idiot? A minute ago, you were jumping for joy about the element of ice, and now you don't like the element of air?"
This time, it seems that Du Bai really woke up, and his features changed as he asked, "The element of air? I've never heard of such an element before."
Jin replied to Du Bai's question with a question. "And what made you think I know? Surely you'll find something in the library. Don't forget, you owe me some Hermit herb... Don't look at me like that. I don't remember saying that the consultation was free."
